Rusatom Overseas and LUKOIL have signed a memorandum of intent on the development of cooperation regarding production and supply of green hydrogen for PETROTEL-LUKOIL SA refinery located in the city of Ploesti in Romania. The parties plan to study opportunities for construction of a green hydrogen production unit at the refinery, thus reducing CO2 emissions, as well as to look into the issue of obtaining government support for the project at both national and European levels.ROSATOM has a considerable technological and R&D potential to develop low-carbon hydrogen production technologies including electrolysis and steam-methane reforming using the CO2 capture technology. ROSATOM is developing its own know-how solutions for the entire lifecycle of hydrogen. In the production area, the state corporation is developing a range of electrolysers, steam-methane reforming installations, and a project of nuclear power and technology plant with a high-temperature gas reactor; the company also offers solutions for energy storage and consumption, such as composite cylinders and polymer fuel cells. ROSATOM is one of the leaders of hydrogen energy development in Russia.
